Would both airports get Would both airports get Satallites 3,4&6? If available?

Ended up being 3 alarms, direct call to the fire house for a possible chimney fire. First in engine had the entire roof going on arrival. No hydrants nearby, first in had 1250 gallons, 2nd in with 1500 with off duty members.

There was plans in the past 3 years to bring 13 back, return it to E22’s house.

So I was always told true hard suction for drafting would come apart on a pressure hydrant, we did it with a 60psi hydrant and it indeed came apart. It was suction hose that drafted just fine as well.

Absolutely! I’m not sure what happened with Ladder 13, I saw the devices were even made and then nothing.

I forget what year it was but District 10 was re-established and is now back out of Engine 55’s house. Dist 10 is 30/25, 49 and 55.

What happens to the water in the booster tank? I know when my job is out on runs in the winter we’re circulating water constantly.

Just for clarification, how many companies are loosing the 5th man?

The graphics company just posted some photos of E21, you can see at least 1 aerial in the background, I think a 2nd.

The new fire house topic sparked a question. What were the latest companies to move out of single quarters to combine in a new or existing house? I can think of E15 moving to TL18, 201 & 114 new house, 63 & 39? Any others?

So during that time the Satellite’s were their own company and not cross staffed by their house engines?

Thank you all for your replies, I appreciate the info.

When a satellite is assigned to a job via run cards, if the satellite isn’t utilized at that job, do the members assigned to the satellite stay with the rig, or do they join their normally assigned engine company and operate? Thank you for any input.

I have 0 knowledge of their first due’s but funny you mention 38 & 49 didn’t they both have those massive Seagrave RMs in the early 90’s?

Was there ever company numbers assigned or did it not get that far?

I met the truck committee when they were out at the factory not too long ago, great group.

Sumner was built in the 30’s, state route 1A, traffic went both directions. Callahan was built mid 60’s parrallel and then each tunnel had one direction. The “Big Dig” brought the Ted Williams in the early 90’s, it took the Mass Pike or Interstate 90 from the NY border right to Logan.

Out of all the posts about this incident your put the most perspective on it, no ventilation, truly mind blowing when you think for a minute.

yes they are parrallel, East Boston is only connected to “downtown” or “Boston proper” by tunnels, the harbor divides them. East Boston is on 1 fire district, District 1, 3 engines and 2 ladders. It’s just shy of 5 square miles and included Logan Airport.

I’m pretty sure someone has one on Facebook they post about restoring from time to time, I’m drawing a complete blank currently though.
